Andy Warhol’s Pop Art movement explored the intersection of artistic expression, celebrity culture and advertisement, which could also be a description for certain sneaker collaborations. So Converse putting together a collection with the Andy Warhol Foundation makes perfect sense and it isn’t a measly two-shoe drop either.
The set leaves us with 11 unique Converse Chuck Taylor colorways and each one embodies the spirit of Andy Warhol’s pop art. Colorful cans of Campbell’s soup pop up in various forms. They’re screen-printed all along the canvas upper of the kick and in case you don’t know what to wear with them, the collection comes with shirts as well.
The full collection will land at retailers on Feb. 7 and from the looks of things, nothing included here will run you more than $100. A portion of all proceeds will go to the Andy Warhol Foundation, which is a great way to support the arts.
